A 1.5 V, single-supply, one-transistor p-ch CMOS EEPROM array has been developed. Negative write and erase voltages of -28V are generated on-chip by voltage multipliers and fed by a 1.5 V logic to the matrix array. Erase and writing times are 25 ms. Endurance is 104-105 cycles.

In this paper, the author will try to show you which type of electronic components LSI circuits particularly the telecommunications industry will need in the eighties. Choices still will have to be made between possible solutions to different problems. But, as the aims become clear and certain, the needs of new components become more precise.

In this paper a design methodology for very complex custom circuits (more than 100 000 MOS) is presented. This method is based on a multiprocessor architecture assembled from a library of modules (functional processors) interconnected by a communication kernel based on a hardware implementation of the software monitor concept.

Digital television requires several building blocks to perform the total video signal processing digitally. One of them is a chroma filter, which has to separate the colour information from the brightness information (luminance). In this paper two 17.7 MHz digital low-pass filters are discussed, which perform-in combination with other circuitry-the above mentioned function. Both filter functions are implemented in a dual mode chip made in 4/um NMOS E/D technology with implanted undercrossings.
